RPS1C820MCN1GS

The RPS1C820MCN1GS is a surface-mount conductive polymer aluminum solid electrolytic capacitor designed for general-purpose power and decoupling applications. It offers low ESR and high AC ripple handling in a compact φ8 × 6.7 mm SMD can package.

With a 16 V rating, 82 µF capacitance, wide operating temperature range (−55°C to 105°C) and a rated life of 2000 hours at 105°C, this component addresses high-frequency switching and smoothing needs where reliability and compact size matter.

Key Features

• Conductive polymer aluminum construction Solid electrolytic design for stable capacitance and improved ripple performance compared with traditional wet electrolytes.
• Low ESR ESR of 40 mΩ (20°C / 100 kHz) supports high-frequency decoupling and lowers power dissipation in switching circuits.
• High ripple current capability Rated ripple current of 230 mA at 120 Hz (low frequency) and 2.3 A at 300 kHz (high frequency) for handling switching-regulator and converter loads.
• Compact SMD can package φ8 × 6.7 mm case (radial, can - SMD) with surface-mount land size L: 8.3 × W: 8.3 mm for space-constrained PCB designs.
• Robust thermal and lifetime specifications Operating range −55°C to 105°C and endurance of 2000 hours at 105°C under rated voltage for use in elevated-temperature environments.
• Electrical characteristics 82 µF ±20% capacitance, tan δ = 0.1 (20°C, 120 Hz), and leakage current 262 µA—useful for predictable filtering and timing behavior.
• Assembly and compliance Embossed carrier taping with moisture-proof packing; SMD type compatible with lead-free reflow soldering (260°C peak). RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Switching power supplies Bulk and post-regulation decoupling where low ESR and high-frequency ripple current capability reduce voltage ripple and heat.
• DC-DC converters Input and output smoothing on point-of-load modules that require compact SMD capacitors with high ripple handling.
• Consumer and industrial electronics General-purpose filtering in compact boards that operate across −55°C to 105°C and demand reliable performance over time.

Unique Advantages

• High-frequency performance: Low ESR (40 mΩ at 100 kHz) and 2.3 A ripple rating at 300 kHz enable effective suppression of switching noise.
• Temperature and lifetime resilience: Rated for −55°C to 105°C with a 2000-hour endurance at 105°C, supporting designs exposed to elevated operating temperatures.
• Compact SMD form factor: φ8 × 6.7 mm size and standard embossed carrier taping simplify PCB layout in space-constrained designs.
• Predictable electrical behavior: Specified tan δ, leakage current, and ±20% capacitance tolerance provide measurable parameters for system simulations and margin planning.
• Manufacturing-ready packaging: Moisture-proof packing and lead-free reflow compatibility (260°C peak) streamline assembly for modern SMT production lines.
